TREES.
Like tbe lalcsl left of the bailie-spears
In their ancient strength they stand;
And thtj t'I us yet of the sylvan years
When the forests filled the land
Ere ever a hunter tracked the wood
Or matiner ploughed tSe seas
But tVe isles were green in the solitude
Of their old primeval trees
They have survived iheDruid's faitb '
And the Roman eagle's fall
And the thrilling blsst ofthe bugle's breath
From tbe Norman's kpightly hall :
But the sun shines bright and tbe showers
descend
And the wild bird's home is made.
"Where the aueient giants still extend
The green of their summer shade.
"We have seen our early winters ban?
Their pearls on each leafless bnngh
Arid greeting the buds of the waking Spring
"With a joy we know not now ;
For life bath its winters cold and luar
But their frosts cin form no gem ;
And the Spring may breathe on our hearts
no more
But it still returns to them.
They are waring o'er our hamlet roofs
They are bending o'er our dead
And lbs odors breathed from his native groves
Oil the exile's hart they shed ;
Like him who gazed on his country's palm.
By the palace-circled Seine
Till the pagod rose In the wanderer's dream
And the Ganges rolled again.
Mow s jreet in our childhood's car they spoke
For we knew their voices well.
When far in our western hills tbey wike
Of the coming Spring to tell ;
But now tbey send us a sadder sound
On tlic winds of Autumn eves
For it murmurs of wisdom more profound
But it tells of withered leaves.
O' such wss tbe Dryad's tone that rose
In the Grecian woods of old.
And the voice from tbe Indian wilderness
Thst the conqueror' fate foretold ;
For many a minstrel's dream had birth
Iuthcsounds of Icafand breeze
And tbe early oracles of earth
Were the old complaining Trees !

Madagascar issued orders thatnll the Eng-
lish nnd French residing in her dominions

naturalised us IIa!agaches or that they
should immediately quit the island. On re-

the Cape otGood Hope giving the captain
instructions to tnurh on his way at Tamative
and to tell the terrified foreigner there that
the British Governor of the Mauritius and
the French Governor of Bourbon would
without delay send succour to them. The
Thunder sailed from the Mauritius on the
5th of June and her Majesty's ship Conway
proceeded to Tamative on lhe7ih and the
Governor of Bourbon sent the French ships
of war Zclecand Berccau to meet the Con'
way. It appears that the attempt; to nego-
ciate was -unsuccessful and an obstinate con.
flicl took place. Finally both the English
and French ships returned to the Mauritus
nnd English and French subjects who were
the immediate cuuse of the quarrel. The
following account of the affair is taken from
a Mauritius paper of June 28th ; " Her Ma-
jesty's frigate Conway nnd his French Ma-
jesty's ship Zelec and the Berceau met in
Tamative Roads according to the arrange-
ment agreed to by the Governor of Bourbon
and Mauritius. The object of their voyage
was to obtain from Ranavalo Manjaka less
harsh conditions than those which she had
imposed upon the European traders whom
she had threatened with expulsion and tht
confiscation of their property tftliey did not
become naturalised Malgasb that is slaves.
The representatives of the two nations not
having succeeded in their negotiations an ob-
stinate combat took place the details ef which
have been brought by the Conway.
"Three hundred and fifty men of whom
100 wero French soldiers and the ethers be-
longing to the crews ofthe three ships under
the comman J of Captain Feiseck and Lieu
tenant Heseltine landed on the afternoon of
the 15th instant and advanced across aplainj
under a sharp fire from the fort and battery
of grape and musketry. The enemy was
driven out ofthe battery and the guns were
spiked. The out-work or screen which had
been supposed to be tbe fort itself was storm
ed and taken. They hsre discovered the re-
al fort which' is a circular one and mounting
ubout 30 guns which were casern a ted. and
in a circular gallery. The wall is about 30

PROSPECTUS OF THE "NEW
'ERA"
A NEWSPAPER TO BE PUBLISH-
ED AT THE CITY OF AUSTIN THE
SEAT OF GOVERNMENT OF TEX-
AS. The undersigned having purchased tbe prin-
ting cstabl Wunent in the City of Austin formerly
knoirn asthe "Austin City Gavette" proposes lo
publish at the Seat of Government a paper to be
called the New Era;'' and in accordance with
long established usage he now submits to those
who may be disposed to patronize him a few of
the leading principles which will characterize his
Journal and gorern him in his editorial career.
In selecting a nsme for his paper the undersign
ed has chesen to adopt the one used (during the
sess-"" of ihe late Convention) by his linmdiate
predecessors in the Same office as being most ap-
propriate to the present condition ofthe country
With Texas this is emphatically of New Ere. A
revolution unparalleled in the annals of history
ccnccired sustained and finally consummated in
peace and harmony by the good sense nnd un-
wavering perseverance of her own citizens is
about to change her form of government from en
indepndent end uncontrolled sovereignty lo one
more limited in its powers but belter calculated lo
secure the objects of all government the hap
piness and prosperity of the governed. Under the
operation of this change it is believed a new state
of things will be presented which will be no less
conspicuous in the moral and politics) than in the
physical complexion of ihccountry. Instead ofthe
sectional jealousies and party animosities which
unfortunately have heretofore prevailed ta an ex-
tent eminently injurious to the best interests ofthe
people Texas ought now to expect that unan
imity in sentiment and action which can alone
ensure respectability and influence in the relatiuns
which she is about to assume. Willi Tcxians
aiming to advance the prosperity of th-ir State
thcrcshottld be hut little diversity of opinion as to
the best modesof accomplishing the object. Their
interests are and must be idrnlical; for notwith
standing the unsurpassed capacities of the country
will necessarily give rise to a great variety of
pursuits still the policy which will foster and
encourage one if true in itself will be found equ-
ally available in sustaining and promoting the
others. Believing then that there will be found to
exist no real cause of discord among the people
and that harmony is the true basis upon which the
l'cture political structure of Texas should be reared
it will be the object ofthe nudersi?ned to promote
it by every legitimate mean' within hi power.
In the ccjlumr.s of thc.Nnv EtA will ba found
nothing to rovive past political humilities or keep
j alive sectional jealousies and disputes. The aims

PROSPECTUS. t
OF ' il l
THE "CONGRESSIONAL. UNION"
AND" APPENDIX" &c.
The vndeiisicxsd respectfully inforra-th pobw
lie that with Ihe cmmencement'of the approach-
ing session of Congress Ihey will besinthe publ?"
cation of the "Congressional'-Union" and ""Ap-
pendix." The first will contain a full and accu-
rate history of the daily proceedings of both branch-
es .f the national legislature. It will be compiled
with such care that every citizen who fa interes-
ted in the public aQJirs will find it a t Oiplete iy-
nopsis of their proceedings and a ready book of re-
ference upon all questions which come before them.
The second (the " Appendix") will contain ev-
eiy specth which is delivered in tbe House or Rep-
resentative and Senate during thesesiion reported
at length by a full and able carps ofcongressioBal
reporter and revised before publication by the au-
thors whenerer it is requested. These two works
will be strictly impartial and are intended to be at
interesting and useful to tbe man of business and
to Uie politician lothe one party as of the other.
It may be saia without exaggeration that the next
session ofCongress isdestioed ta be on'o ofthe most
important which has taken place since the found-
ation ofthe government- It is the long session.
it is the session which will develope the general
plan of the present administration. Its measures
will stamp the character of onr institutions for
years to come. Some of the most important ques-
tions which are connected with our foreign rela-
tions or our domestic concerns will be presented
for their consideration. The final measure of rati-
fying the constitution ofTcias- which is to consum-
mate her admission into our Union and the admis-
sion of her members into our public councils ev-
ery measure which affects the Oregon question
cur relations with Mexico as well asthe final de-
cision on the revived Zoil-Verein treaty. these
and other measures which are more or less connect-
ed with our foreign relations will come under the
reteiw of ihe approaching Congress. Most ofthe
eminently important questions which relate ta our
internal concerns ihe revision ofthe tariff the a-
doption of tbe best mode for preserving the public
moneys a variety ol commercial measures per-
haps the best system for rezulatinr the important
interests of Texas thejndian questions the land
question the best system for our navy. these and
others will constitute a mass of business which is
calculated to command much of the time cfCoi-
srexs. and much of the attention of the people.
They will all be reported by the "Congressional
Union.
The Daily. Semi-Weekly and Weekly Unioa
will as usual 'embrace an interesting variety of
matter on political scientific and literarv subiects.

or will continue to devote all his energies to the im-
provement of "The Union." lie finds manr ac
complished men in thi city. The administration
has brought with it a considerible accession of tal-
ents. Several tried and distinguished members e

the .school of Jeffersonian Democracy and imbi-

raent ofliii existence he has through life steadily
pursued its doctrines and supported its creed. In
the various political changes of the times (and Le
tliiuks lie has been more than an ordinary ob-er
?er oflhcm) he has seen nothing to change the
opinions he so early imbibed of the true principles: '
ofRcpuuIicnn Gorernnicnt ; and he will therefore
en all proper occasions advocate them. But in
inakiiigilie New Eka lo somo extent a political
journal he cannot believe it will be the means ofex-
citing political animosities in Texas at leas'.
It will advocate none but democratic doctrines ; and
j regarding the people of Texas almost uaiversally
asdemccrats it will he hopes be the medium of
uniting those heretofore separated by unmeaning
party feudf and or promoting and comentin that
harmony which it is so de-irable should picvail
throughout the country. The political bickerings
which spring from personal partisanship will nev-
crmar its columns. " Measures and .not Mkn'i
will be its motto ; and in its support of indiTiduals'
forodice it will be governed by their qualifications

'ercnce to the personal relations which may exist
